I really want to try to get something through to you. Probably wasting my time, but I really do like to reach people, and hopefully enlighten them, whenever possible. What can I say? I'm a giver!
Or an unrepentant, self-righteous know-it-all. Either one will work. LOL.

I'd bet screening only P411 limits clients in a good way. The NCNS guys are all over backpage, very few make it to P411, and will show better behaviour when they do.
I mostly see only RS2K & P411 members. I've had NCNS from both. No, they didn't find me on BackPage. Perhaps you think the screening & reporting for P411 is something that, well, it just ISN'T.
Something a lot of men may not realize: unfortunately, it's only a small percentage of providers who will go to the trouble of BlackListing someone. If a guy has messed up with certain providers, he's certainly not going to volunteer that information when joining either of those sites. So if no one has yet bothered to put him on a BL, and he's behaved himself with a few ladies who will provide a good reference to P411, then he's in.
And no one looking at his profile is the wiser.
With P411, there is no way to really give someone a Not Okay. (There have even been incidents where an Okay was issued in a provider's name, AGAINST her wishes. ) So when he does behave himself, he get an Okay, and if the providers he screws over don't bother to BL him, then no amount of screening will give the next lady any heads-up.

There are ways to avoid problems, and ways to deal with problems you cannot avoid.
Ah yes, the idea that thorough screening really will weed out any and all possibility of negative things happening. Unfortunately, this just isn't so.
Please keep in mind that every time-waster who either cancels last minute or does a NCNS has a FIRST TIME.
Exactly how are we supposed to prevent that from happening?
I'm genuinely curious: how do you recommend dealing with the unavoidable problems you mention?
Perhaps just part of the way the OP is dealing with this particular instance is to come here and vent. Can't say I fault her there. Venting can be very cathartic. And it also helps the many providers who also have to deal with this crap to feel a little bit better, that it's not just them.
